18. What clinical indication refers to an injury in which the distal clavicle usually is displaced superiorly. This is commonly caused by a fall.

Acromioclavicular dislocation

19. What clinical indication refers to trauma to the upper shoulder region resulting in a partial or complete tear of the AC or coracoclavicular ligament or both ligaments.

AC joint seperation
